Zusammenfassung:A power system (100) includes a fuel pre-conditioner (20) adapted to convert a fuel to at least one conditioned fuel, a pulse detonation combustor (10), and a turbine (30). The pulse detonation combustor is adapted to receive the conditioned fuel and a primary oxidizer and to detonate a mixture including the conditioned fuel and the primary oxidizer and exhaust a number of detonation products. The turbine is positioned downstream from and in flow communication with the pulse detonation combustor (10). A power plant (300) includes at least one fuel pre-conditioner (20) and a number of power systems (100). Each power system includes a pulse detonation combustor (10) and a turbine (30) positioned downstream from and in flow communication with the pulse detonation combustor (10).
